Bootmgr is compressed error

I foolishly compressed my harddrive and forgot the Bootmgr will not work on a compressed harddrive.  So after completely compressing my C:\ my computer would not boot correctly.  At boot up I received a "Bootmgr is compressed" error.  In order to fix the problem I had to pull out my Vista DVD and I did the following:

1. Boot the computer with the Vista DVD
2. Choose the "Repair my computer" option
3. Choose the Operating system installation and "load drivers"
4. Choose the drive that was compressed and deselect "compress this drive"
5. Reboot
